As you have access to another computer, download and run SIW - that will tell you which ethernet driver you need. Download that from the manufacturers site. When connected to the internet, download Slimdrivers - it's free and will offer you drivers for all the other hardware.

As onthelimit1 says, go to manufacturers site. As it is a Dell PC you should find the drivers without too much prob as Dell are pretty good at making the drivers readily available, even for v. old PCs.

OK. I've used the Dell service tag to access the drivers for the laptop...which is a Latitude D360.

Trouble is that there are more drivers than I theoretically need since Dell used a number of different makes of component in their machines...so I decided to try to get the correct Ethernet driver so I could at least get on line. Using SIW, the ethernet controller shows as PCI\VEN14E4DEV16... and requires the driver {4d36e97e-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0000.
